OK OK before you rub it in... my bike is done... my wife said NO MORE MONEY... so unless something breaks i cant spend any more... the only change on the list is to "lower" the front fender on the wheel... Other than that I really love how the bike turned out... I started out with a stock 1200C... and well this is how it turned out.... the Mini apes where by far one of the largest comfort items i added besides the seat... and it changes the WHOLE bike... i have never had a bike that was like this one... i think this is a keeper!

i got these BLACK 10in Mini apes from a Member here very nice setup... the only thing i had to change was the Brake line everything else stretched...









as you can see i am in a much more upright position!!!! very very comfortable...

 

Apes look good! Bike looks like it is set up for some comfortable LD riding.

 

Nice looking ride. and good work. that is very similar to the setup I am going towards. I have been trying to figure what the black mini apes would look like with all the chrome and I like it. one question what exhaust is that and did you install/tune yourself?

 

I like what you did with the GPS

 

Did you change the riser? If so, what parts did you use?

 

Glad you got them! Also Glad your happy with them. I told you youd be way more comfy with them.

 

Very nice. Love my minis too.

 

SWEET Looking!!

 

1. yes i changed the riser to a standard Chrome riser (1in) ... i used a "Nightster" gauge mount with a Dakota Digital speedo/tach I also had to change the indicator setup... i used the LED setup from the 2008+ bikes... the 2004 wiring did not work right so i had to install the 2004 plug on the 2008 LED indicator setup... well worth it. I put a write up on the part numbers and what all is involved

2. the GPS is a Garmin Nuvi 750 that i had laying around the battery does not work very well so i got a http://www.gpscity.com Ram mount kit with usb charger... it works well it is awesome for finding gas stations on trips...

3. the exhaust is a Samson Powerflow III with dB killer baffles... i have the links to the "YT" videos in my signature... YES i tuned it myself I also have Dyno results in the "sticky" section I stated in there that I use my bike and i like to be comfortable so i gave up a few HP for some lower sound and comfort... I tuned the carb myself to be about 13.1 AFR to 13.5 all the time i get about 44-50mpg. Also i am running a TC88A ignition module that i tuned as well... (custom map by Rico modified by me) the bike runs strong with that pipe... I do all my own work.. even my tune... I am a mechanic by trade i enjoy working on my own stuff

Thank you Venomized! The apes are awsome!!!

at first i thought these bars would be tooo tall... well i was wrong these are JUST RIGHT FOR ME!

Thanks guys for all the compliments the best part was it was pretty cheap to rig up a NEW brake line... that was all i had to do to make these fit... the cables and wires are the perfect length!

 

I have an o6 1200c it had the pull back handlebars on it and my hands kept falling asleep. I also put the 10' mini apes on it and it instantly looked better and my hands stopped falling asleep. They are a perfect fit for this bike.
